Re: QingQi U-Zeal (轻骑 125-3B): Back to the Basics
MJH, that Honda looks sweets and is definitely the bike I'd love to own should it be legally available and plateable here in PRC. Grass Tracker looks cool too, but my heart's with the classic bikes :)
Zorge, true :) I call it "fun", my friends call it "a waste of money&effort", the doc calls it "a subliminal desire to change a sexual partner"
Re: QingQi U-Zeal (轻骑 125-3B): Back to the Basics
Many of us are never satisfied with the same all the time, it is not easy to keep it interesting.
So what is next? The GW250 is worth a test ride, not sure I would marry a fat one though.
Re: QingQi U-Zeal (轻骑 125-3B): Back to the Basics
I bet it is difficult to get test ride of a GW250, it being national icon and all.

Do not go that way - if sudarnya Stevehaltovskaya hears you, she'll cook aspic of your brain. :lol8:
I think I understand your decision: your Asiawing began to look like a real motorcycle and small Qingqi became excess.
Re: QingQi U-Zeal (轻骑 125-3B): Back to the Basics
Now what next... that's a hard question, that refers me back to that "help me choose a bike" thread I started a couple of months ago.
Actually, I still plan to sell my Asiawing and invest in a new bike.
As for GW 250, well, I rode it twice and I'm in 2 minds here. It's small. It is small, it feels small, it looks small. I look like a Grizzly on a moped riding it. And I still can't get it what's with 24000 price tag over 10800 for my wife's EN150 which is equally small and is twice as nimble in city traffic.
In a word, it feels like a lot of cash for very little bike.
That being said, it's a cool machine from the mechanical point of view: noiseless, handles OK, all the gauges work like they should and it feels a quality product.
Still I'm inclined on purchasing CFMoto's 650 NK because... well, honestly, don't know why. I like its design (the ugly headlight has a couple of nice replacement options) and the feeling on the road. It is small, smooth and has sweet power/weight ratio.
The final decision hasn't been made yet, though.

Steve,
I am going to be installing a set of Rox handlebar risers and an AirHawk seat I brought from the USA on my JH600 tomorrow. Feel free to come by and take the JH600 for spin if you want. You have my phone number.

Same style bike as the U-ZEAL, it just has a bigger frame.

PS. The fork sleeves make the front look more substantial…thicker, heavier and not so thin looking. Plus they actually protect the fork cylinders.
Hi,
I couldn't find this beauty on the wonjan website, maybe because it is in Chinese, which I don't speak. I think they are very beatiful. Do you know anything more about this bike? Make, type, tech specs ans such?
Regards
